Re: If its so bad ... Out of curiosity, how big were HT and FP relative to their purchases from Verizon? Were they less than half the size of the networks they took on? Granted, Frontier's new customer base will be triple what it is now, but if I recall correctly they're the largest provider yet to do this thing.
Additionally, Frontier will have a lot of easy growing room if they're taking areas where Verizon historically hasn't deployed DSL. Put up an RT here and there and you suddenly start getting $40 per month from customers that wouldn't get wireline internet service before.
Of course, that's assuming there's cash left over after the $8.5 billion purchase goes through... |
